RCEP takes effect, and my country's dairy industry welcomes the development trend again

Our reporter Yang Xiaojing

On January 1, the RCEP, covering 6 ASEAN member states including Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, and 4 non-ASEAN member states including China, Japan, New Zealand and Australia, came into effect

The implementation of RCEP accelerates the internationalization of my country's dairy industry

"The implementation of RCEP will have an important impact on China's dairy industry

As the dairy industry connects upstream agricultural planting and downstream consumers, China's dairy industry has a certain degree of dependence on the international market.

For example, as early as 2014, Yili invested 3 billion yuan to build a production base in New Zealand

In fact, Yili Group has been continuously promoting the implementation of its internationalization strategy in recent years

Wang Wei believes that the signing of RCEP has promoted trade facilitation and brought great convenience to the dairy industry, which has particularly high requirements for customs clearance and logistics time

"The entry into force of RCEP is a great benefit to the dairy industry

At the same time, dairy companies such as Bright Dairy, Shengyuan, Ausnutria, and New Hope have also started their deployment in Australia a few years ago

Song Liang commented on this that the domestic and foreign market resources of the dairy industry chain are unbalanced.

To make full use of the rules, dairy enterprises still need to prepare for internationalization

At the same time, the entry into force of RCEP presents both opportunities and challenges to China's dairy industry

RCEP is to build an economic cycle around the entire Asia-Pacific region

However, at present, some companies' understanding of RCEP is still at the level of tariff reduction and exemption, and they do not pay much attention to the investment liberalization and facilitation, relief measures, and dispute settlement under RCEP

"Internationalization is obviously not an easy task.

　　Song Liang emphasized that the benefits brought by the agreement are not only the reduction of import tariffs, but also a series of supporting optimization services

　　Li Pengcheng believes that how to do a good job of internationalization of dairy enterprises in China: First, we must do a good job of local teams.

　　Reducing import tariffs will promote the growth of trade and investment, and will also intensify industry competition

　　"Resetting tariffs to zero is not the most important thing for dairy companies.
The most important thing is that companies will enjoy the treatment of local local companies without discrimination.
Therefore, companies must take advantage of technology costs and supply chain advantages to open up the market and gain access to the market.
At the
same time, it can further acquire some local companies and brands with better conditions, and thereby improve the reputation of China's dairy industry .

" Song Liang suggested
